Being overweight not only affects our bodies but also our minds. In this weight conscience society that sets such high standards of being young, slim and beautiful the overweight person is often stigmatized.
Being overweight is not only detrimental to your health but to your “everyday life” situations. People who are overweight are more likely to be unhappy and full of anxiety. You don’t think they know when someone is staring at them because they’re overweight. Being unhappy inside also creates unhappy relationships with family and friends.
